One of the least-known treasure troves of information
in San Diego County is that over two hundred Master Gardeners
provide home gardening and pest control information throughout
the county, FREE to the public.

Master Gardeners are volunteers trained
and supervised by the University of California Cooperative
Extension (UCCE).

The mission of the UCCE is to conduct research on
new pests and issues affecting the county, and to
provide research based information to the public.
The county of San Diego provides support for the
local UCCE office which is known as the Farm and
Home Advisor Department.
